Mr. Robert Hicks

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will outline the basis of the additionality conditions as applied by the United Kingdom Government in the context of the terms of EC grants and payments as set out in Community legislation; and if he will list those Community countries that follow the same procedures as the United Kingdom.
